The True Lady


Ms. Thatcher has gone. After her legacy of strong opinions, not many politicians dare to do the same.
Pleasing the people seem to be the order of the day.
A "good" politician can not support or atack drug use, or gay marriages, or anything that demands a strong opinion. That is disgusting !
I mean not taking part is not acceptable.
You may like or dislike one's ideas, but they are what he/she mulded as his/her character.
What really pisses me off is to attack just for attacking. Nonsense.
Ms. Thatcher has helped changing the world, for good or for bad, she did what she was supposed to do, according to her believes.
Here in Brazil, for instance, some 30 public banks were privitised, mining and steel companies too. Lots of people complainned, but due to that our economy is more flexible, the currency is ok and inflation is kind of controlled. No one can say it was a British imposition, but the pom's example seemed to be effective.
Could we say that Argentina was also benefitted ? After loosing the war (never desired) the military government fell down, after Her Magesty's troups won the war. One of the most cruel regimes was put behind. Wasn't it good ? (the rights for the Malvines I believe is still Argentinean, but that is another topic)
So I want to render my simpathy to all politicians who stand for a cause based on his/her principles.
I cannot say rest in peace, as for my principles Ms Thatcher is a kind of spirit that doens't rest. So, have a good break and come back soon and pelase, dance with me.
